[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
I admit I am very confused by this build. It seems to be splitting 50/50 between those who find it unusable and those having no problem at all.

The lag/fc issues some are having seem to be too widespread to be accounted for by the normal mix of app conflict/user error/different expectations. Therefore what is going on that could account for such extremes in user experience?

Out of curiosity I tried the vm-heap edit that some have had success with and don't see any difference, but then I was not having issues at 128 either.

Anyone have a clue about what could be the underlying issue?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] SAEVARM3:
It is weird indeed but every ROM that has been in the making has been like this...

There is always someone with a major problem and someone with no problems at all..... :/

Seems like our phones have the name in common and nothing else....
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] juxli125:
some strange bugs: if i am in an area with no mobile connection com.android.phone crashes; network and data goes away till reboot; no other way to re-enable network. Another bug, happend once to me is that during using browser,and clicking on a link,suddenly the phone opens all installed apps in the backround. if i press the back button; i have to close all my installed apps. wtf :D tried full wipe but this rom still has strange FCs .. build 9 worked well for me.

Sorry my friend but thats nonsense. Ive done everything right; i wiped everything; and still no luck with this rom. Ive already flashed many roms so im not an noob; its just a fact that this rom has some bugs; no matter if you are noob or not :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] erto90:
Ok sorry for being drastic but...

50/50? Uhm ot i think 50/40/10

Ok..

Is because 50% of users know what they are doing and all run fine because they know where tu puts they hands

40% is totally noob and flash only for sport crying at first problem

And the restant 10% can be the strange world of the informatic

Maybe they have done all ok but destiny have something to do with they all...

:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sir ahmed:
OMG HEHEH

i thought nandroid backup is another method for backup :p

because in my language we use one word for backup ? that's make me lettle confuse ..

anyway thank you .. and pressed the thank's botton ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ruicc:
Sincerely, i was a little bit worried about a lot of ppl having troubles with this build...

But, i installed build 10 today...and i haven't any problem with this build.

I have installed 46 applications, the only changes that i've done was:

- replace gallery with quicpic;

- replace trebuchet lancher with Nemus Launcher...

For contacts, i'm using Rocket contacts and Go SMS for sms.

I hadn't or haven't any FC's, since first install...

Application music is triplicating my songs...but it's a application that i don't use a lot.

Superuser couldn't give root access...i've downloaded the signed version posted here by someone...just installed....running without problems...

I don't have any issue with browser, too....

I always had the same flashing method...

Download from sammobile the latest firmware, in this case XWJVZ 2.3.6 firmware..

Flash the firmware with ODIN,

Flash kernel semaphore, (i think it's now 2.1.1)

Flash ICS 4.0.3....

The only thing that i missed is battery status decreasing and increasing by 1%...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gjroeleveld:
The open states to do a factory reset. Although ICS should be able to upgrade your apps, I would strongly suggest to follow the advice at this point. As a lot of apps are sub optimized for ICS. If you want you could restore some apps from titanium, but as always just the apps, data is a culprit...

Reinstall from market is preferred.

Just backup your SMS's with some tool. And sync your contacts with Gmail and / or Exchange.

Just my experience of the last few weeks..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] got_milk:
I don't have an answer for you, just that I flashed the CM7-ready KG3 modem after installing and it worked fine for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] currydude:
Anyone notice that the cache partition is a bit small? About 17mb ... might be a problem downloading larger apps from market (haven't come across ant problems yet though, just a thought)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] schplade:
Is anyone else having issues with the phone not ringing? I keep getting missed calls but i never hear it ring.

Im on build 1, so i might just try upgrading to fix it
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gazeddy:
nope its fine for me only issue ive found is mms so far
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] gmhafiz:
thank god!

Possibly. If it does indeed become a problem to install large app, maybe we can take a bit from /data partition?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] HellSassa69:
probs for the easy flashing guide when you come from cm7 :)

It seems that the rom is goog enough to be my daily drive with its 2nd BUILD :)

Calendar sync doesnt work for me even with gapps v2 and blood and glory also doesn t work but I think thats not your fault.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vali_ics:
Try this for calendar ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FlipFlap:
Ofcourse ^^

Strange but if that's the biggest issue;-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] erto90:
I haven't undestood a thing: this rom is the cm9 alpha?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vali_ics:
Something like this, to find fast bugs and glitchs,I think.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] st4rk:
Basically yes, but not much noticeably cm in it yet, I think they are starting with getting ics running and then will build cm changes into it.. That is just a guess on my part, but it seems logical.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Boaty:
What is exactly the difference between hardware acceleration and hardware composition? Is there someone who can explain this? I understand that hardware acceleration is working, but composition not. Is that difficult to fix, and even possible?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] vali_ics:
Of course it's possible, but we don't know when the developers will found a fix..
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kar200:
I am just going to speculate about it and I tried to google it but was not successful.

the way I understand it is that Hardware acceleration is used when you play videos. So for example if you play a video (codec) that the GPU supports the GPU will do the decoding of the video hence you get a nice playback with little CPU usage.

Hardware composition would be for the rest which is not related to Video playback. So for example the UI is done using the CPU. The Galaxy CPU is powerful enough I suppose to do this but maybe there is some battery saving if it is done through the GPU?

Obviously this can be complete BS and I will give the microphone to someone who knows. Pawitp?

Sry for repost
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Sm0L:
For me the only thing that's not working like build 9 is the browser when i zoom in and then zoom out it doesn't refresh the screen right away and takes a little time.

The only things that i may have different than other is that i have JVT modem and i don't use /datadata, i didn't mess with anything else.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dready75:
Which one you modified ? Default are :

dalvik.vm.heapstartsize=5m

dalvik.vm.heapgrowlimit=48m

dalvik.vm.heapsize=128m
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] nanoSpawn:
My 2 cents for this build. Did a clean install for build 6, and since then, been flashing each build on top of the former one, and then installing Gapps without any wipes, neither dalvik or the cache.

Works perfectly, no FC, no problems with connectivity and no issues besides the know ones.

Dunno why some people have so many problems, I also have craploads of apps installed (bought like 20 in the 10cent. days). But here, the Rom works fine, just to let the devs know the rom is worth it.

Also, take in mind they're adding features, not polishing bugs. Adding features also adds bugs, that's for sure, one day they'll freeze the feature adding and start polishing, but that's not the current state of things.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Fremen567:
OK I do know what I am doing and still had issues with build 10. Now what? Been messing and using android since cupcake. Don't know how manny times I flashed and messed with my Galaxy Spica :).

Point is this build has issues or more so than other recent builds. And that is fine these are all alpha/beta builds. Pawitp and the team are doing great job with ICS.

And users are reporting their experienses with it. Most of folks here know how to flash.

So it's not "ur holding it wrong" issue.

Thanks

Any one experiencing choppy video recording :( ..?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Lakerdas:
You're supposed to modify dalvik.vm.heapsize.

In any case, and for those that wonder, cm7 nightly 181 uses 32m as a default for heapsize and gives you these sizes to chose from (under cm settings - performance) 12m - 16m - 24m - 32m - 48m.

Fix for data disabled on boot (and hopefully other RIL crashes):

http://faramir.eriador.org/pawitp/datafix_build10.zip
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] erto90:
You are part of 10% ...

And for all: remeber is an alpha-stage build and is normal that got some problem..

But i repeat, 99% of problem are objective.. The build is the same for all so problems have to be the same or most..

Maybe guys are using apps unsupported in ics and then have troubles..

My tip is to read carefully the OP and also,when you all download apps,, to check if is compatible with ics..

Maybe you can try also if not written but remeber that you can fall in problems,force close and crash..

That all

And of course, the "you" in for all, not for the autor of the quoted message;)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hlubepet:
that will be really great.... fugumod is 3.0.8, maybe just "recompile" or something
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kinghorsey:
Yes, and this is an issue carried over from CM7. It's basically due to Samsung's drivers being closed source IIRC.

It only affects HD recording. SD recording is fine.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ashtrix:
404 error..:(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ruicc:
@PAWITP,

Link don't work....can you provide a new one, please?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] MysticDeth:
Build 10 is by far the best Rom I have ever used...The first time I installed it, I got alot of FCs, mainly the launcher and Gapps, but I did a factory reset, reinstalled the rom, reinstalled Gapps, and installed ADW Ex as my main launcher and I havent got a FC yet(Launcher and Gapps)

The battery life is even better then CM7(Amazing)

One problem that I have is when I installed the Super User fix, SU sometime Force Closes but it doesn't happen too often...Does anyone know what could be the problem?

Other then that small issue, awesome work TeamHackSung :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ashtrix:
Yeah, there was a fix for GB actually,expecting an ICS fix soon.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] kinghorsey:
I think even the fix was hit-or-miss. I know it didn't work for me in CM7.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ruicc:
Search this thread, and you'll find the solution....

Cheers
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ashtrix:
Oh, actually i had issues in CM7, So had to move to another ROM and found this CM9..:D

Could you add the fix of this? "Cannot authenticate new apps for root" Updating to the latest binary su. http://downloads.androidsu.com/superuser/su-bin-3.0.3.2-efghi-signed.zip

Greets!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jose.celestino:
Christ! What is all this hype with the 3.0? You know that 2.6 -> 3.0 was just a number change, no major things there. True it may have some fixes/shiny stuff but it is no holy grail and I think the devs have their priorities straight already.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Ashtrix:
When does this shows up??
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] ashwinds:
1) I am sure nikadeumus limits those who can upload to faramir.

2) Pawitp's usual uploads are to a subdirectory pawitp on faramir

Those 2 are enough reasons for me to consider that the poster sh@m@n provided a helpful correction to pawitp's post. I am going to use it - but then to each their own :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bilow:
Hi,

I've flashed the rom build 10 and it seemed to work fine but

it didn't mount my internal sd card. after tryin and trying it didn't work. (Going into galery I see the maps but then error: No internal SD card / camera can't take picture: No internal SD card. )

so i went back to my old custom rom darky rom.

But then i saw that i don't receive any signal. it doesn't even ask me for my pin code on start up.

After trying again it didn't work so i thought again back to ICS build 10. I flashed it again, and this time my internal SD card was okay, but still no signal.

I've google'd the sh*t out if it :) but i can't find any solution.

So current status: ICS Build 10. Everything okay except the signal.

It doesn't ask me for a pin code. The phone is in flight mode, and i can't get out of it...

Any idea's?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sorcio46:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
...and the signal fix solved the Bluetooth problem...or maybe it was the reboot. Either way its fixed.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jacobuscuracao:
these are two separate things: pin lock and signal.

not sure if PIN lock is supposed to work, I guess so, but is something at boot.

as for signal: my stock advise is to install JVT modem (perka has them), that is if you don't have it installed yet.

Build 10 seems to come with another baseband

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] canadianrider:
I think this thread needs to start the same way as onecosmics ...

If you have a problem ie FC's .. first:

Wipe CACHE

Wipe DALVIK CACHE

if that doesn't work..

Factory reset

if THAT doesn't work,

reflash rom and repeat all steps above again..

if that doesn't work throw your phone at the wall and by a galaxy nexus.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jacobuscuracao:
if pawitp thought it was important to change the heapsize I'm sure he would have included it.

it is possible that the datafix is sufficient and heapsize not relevant - he must have had a reason for setting it to 128Mb.

somebody should try the datafix and put the heapsize back to 128 and see what happens
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
Again I remind you that this is not a FINISHED rom. It is for TESTING.

If you go in and start changing default values and settings as soon as you boot it up, then all you are testing are your changes.

For people that don't read the thread it isn't. I sympathise with them a lot. Some don't have the time too, but if they want to help out, the known issues are in the OP, but not everything else, so they might not be able to accurately bug report.
